The Town of Hampden Select Board recorded several formal motions and approvals during its April 14 meeting. Actions were taken by voice vote; the transcript records voice approval (“Aye”) but does not include roll-call vote tallies.

Key outcomes recorded in the meeting:

- Joyce Dunkley — Appointment to the Town of Hampden Historical Commission: The board moved, seconded and approved renewing Joyce Dunkley’s service on the Historical Commission so the commission can reach a quorum.

- Special election: The board moved and approved calling a special election to fill a Select Board vacancy; the board set the date for June 23, 2025, consistent with the town clerk’s notice window.

- Warrant actions for Town Meeting (May 12, 2025): The board moved to open the warrant to delete a ballot question at the end of the warrant, then moved to close and publish the Town Meeting warrant for May 12; the motions passed by voice vote.

- Highway superintendent contract: The board voted to authorize the board to offer a new three-year employment contract to Highway Superintendent Mark Langone and to proceed with execution.

All motions in the meeting transcript were approved by voice vote and recorded as “Aye.” The transcript does not provide recorded roll-call vote tallies or named yes/no lists for any of these motions; the town clerk’s official minutes and filed warrant will contain the formal records and signatures.
